Should have killed him, now he has a reason to come back.
>>28304781
Now that he knows someone's there he probably won't come back
In my area a lot of thieves stake out empty houses for breakin while people are traveling for Christmas

>>28304755
Why weren't you armed?
Why is he still alive?
Why didn't you ventilate that fucker?
Yea he was riding around real slow, circling around, most likely looking for squirrels to shoot.. or atleast thats his excuse.
I would be of been fine with all of it if he said something along the lines of 'my apologies, just playing with my new varmit gun' but his attitude spurned my response.
its irresponsible and fkn stupid.

wasn't armed at the moment, was out front with my dogs after exercise. after yelling to him I ran in and armed myself. he saw this and rode off.

with that attitude
he was going to stake your house out
Pointing a weapon at someone is considered assault in most states, whether or not it was a deadly weapon is beside the point.
Call the police. Give a description. If he's caught you can help identify him. He sounds like an idiot who is making a bunch of wrong choices in life. Best to let him know that good citizens and the police have an eye on him and riding around pointing pellet guns at people is not a thing good people do.
Putting the fear of law abiding citizens into him may save his life one day.

Jesus Christ, you have some shitty eyes

after his first sight, it was clear it was a long gun. I couldnt tell if he was white or black either, so maybe further out than 50 yards

Do what you did, except a call a neighbor instead of calling the cops.
This isn't *just* for ideological reasons. It is not at all unheard of for people to call LEOs in and wind up getting shot on sight themselves, especially in a situation like this where multiple people are armed.

>>28321092
Write a letter detailing your feelings, give all directly-involved parties a copy of that letter.
Also, how fucking expensive can a treadmill get that you'd need to sell all that shit to purchase one? An actual stg44 would have been like, what, 20 thousand?
>>28321144
He spent like $4000 on the treadmill. This was like 1997, home treadmills were a new-ish thing. He didn't spend all the money on the treadmill, that was just part of it. To be fair, he did buy her a new wedding ring. The first one he bought her "wasn't big enough."

Both sides of my family are financially retarded. Grandpa left my mom's side of the family at least 5+ million. I don't know for sure, but I know how much land he owned ~5 years before he died. Somehow, its all gone.
I just want to marry a nice, old fashioned girl and adopt a new mother and father.

I really don't hate my dad. He's a good man, just not very smart. Like he's actually very dumb when it comes to academics. But he loves me and while I was growing up everything he did was to try and provide me with a better life. He was just trying to make my mom happy. Tbh I don't really hate him, I just feel sorry for him. He was my best friend.
But fuck my mom. I only gave her the money (didn't even "lend" it to her, just flat out gave it to her) so I don't have to put up with her bullshit.

I can understand the emotional investment - he's your father for crying out loud - but every reasonable adult would tell you that the decisions you make in life have consequences. Believe me, I know what it's like to watch a close family member circle down the drain like that. But they made their own bed - now they got to lie in it. And if you try to help them out of that downward spiral, they'll likely just pull you in and drag you down. It's best you come to grips with this now so you'll save yourself a lot of grief later.
Same goes for your mom, only it should be a lot easier to completely shut her out. You don't need to be rude about it, just don't take any calls from her or answer her e-mails.

You live on a dead end road and dont know your neighbors well enough to tell if it was one of them?
If it wasnt, then you should have called the police emergency number and said that there was some shady motherfucker pointing a rifle at people. That'll get thier attention.
